How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forge Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector LE8 8 | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Harborough | £150,000 | £170,000 -12% since | £130,000 +15% since | £119,000 +26% since | £118,000 +27% since |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in LE8 8, over the last five years (775 sales):
- What sells: 47% detached, 25% semi-detached, 23% terraced, 4% other, 2% flats.
- 2% sold leasehold, and 42% were new builds.
- 95 sales in the last twelve months, against 197 in the same twelve months five years ago.
